[chef] Everything starts except chef-server, no log output..

[Jeff MacDonald < >]

Hi,

My environment is Centos 6 64bit.

I'm following this : http://wiki.opscode.com/display/chef/Installing+Chef+Server+using+Chef+Solo#InstallingChefServerusingChefSolo-rabbitmq

When I get to the chef-solo stage, installs just fine however when i try to start /etc/init.d/chef-server it says "OK" however a ps aux|grep server shows nothing.

Likewise /var/log/chef/server.log is empty.

I edited server.rb and increased the logging level to fatal , still nothing.

I've put an strace here : http://www.bignose.ca/strace/debug and I've also deleted stale /var/run/chef files but to no avail also.

Any tips would be appreciated, I'm getting anxious to get my learn on.

Jeff.
